Who in the World Was the Unready King? The Story of Ethelred
Why did one of the last Anglo-Saxon kings of England leave his throne when Sweyn Forkbeard and the Vikings invaded? In less than forty years, England changed hands forever. How did the life of the boy-king Ethelred alter English history?
Connie Clark’s biography of the king who paved the way for the Viking invasion answers these questions, while Jed Mickle’s ingenious and energetic illustrations give us a fresh look at Ethelred and the colorful men and women who surrounded him during his reign.
The Story of Ethelred correlates to Chapter 15 of The Story of the World, Volume 2 and allows even the youngest scholars to explore outside reading as a way to gain historical knowledge.
